In this first tutorial, we are going to talk about Twitter marketing and how you can build your list of followers. Anyone who has a Twitter account can build followers, but if your main objective with twitter is to market your site, then you need to filter your followers. Remember that building your list of followers is just like building a website, it takes time but its worth it.
One of the biggest mistakes people tend to make when they sign up for a twitter account is that they automatically start following dozens of random people. If your intention is to market your website, product or services then you should build your list of followers, which means the amount of people following you, not you following them.
Of course there are some marketing experts on twitter that you should follow, but for now lets concentrate on getting your list of followers first. Once you have your account all set up, the next thing for you to do is to look at tweets related to your product, service or site concept. You should begin reading tweets written by users relevant to your site concept.
Find postings that you feel is very informative and start posting replies yourself. The key here is to provide useful text to those site that you find similar to yours. The reason for this is to start creating a name for yourself, you want others to think of you as an expert. Once other followers see how valuable your tweets are, you will see a rise in the number of followers.
Just remember to treat them the way you want to be treated. The simple rule here is if they follow you, its best that you follow them back.
